Wow! Those are great tapes! Maybe tape will be the new vinyl. I saw Dinosaur Jr. releasing reissues of old albums on tape recently.
It was all about timing with those mix tapes. Add up the track timing, get everything ordered, stack up your CDs in the right order (unless you are old school and had to wait by the stereo listening to the radio, hoping your song came on), making sure it didn’t go past the 30 or 45 minute count before changing sides.
It was a whole process!0 -

My old school style of making mix tapes was transferring songs off vinyl LPs to cassette tape. Timing, setting volume so each song as close that way, and quickly moving from one machine to the other other was like a dance. When the taping was done, I illustrated the outfacing edge of the tape sleeve or in a couple of cases (like with the U2 and one of the Neil Young) printed off the name for the face and a photo for the top of the sleeve.I also used to do crazy stuff like when I taped the guitar intro to Lou Reed's song "Women" over and over and over until it filled enough tape to use it to help me go to sleep.Or I would tape every example I could find of a name off a record (just the part where the name was spoken or sung), then play that tape into my phone to various friends answering machines when they were not home, and then speak into the phone and say, "Are you home?" and then hang up. Fortunately, that only pissed off one friend.
"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -
Great idea for a thread - so hard to narrow it down to 10 songs though!
Jimi Hendrix - The Wind Cries Mary
My all-time favourite Jimi song. The lyrics "The traffic lights, they turn blue tomorrow, and shine their emptiness down on my bed" struck me as a teenager and still stop me in my tracks to this day, and the guitar playing is beautiful.
Mark Lanegan - When Your Number Isn't Up
So many Lanegan songs to chose from. It has to be the live acoustic version from the Live At Leeds bootleg. Haunting.
It was a very close call between this and The Circus Is Leaving Town by Mark and Isobel Campbell.
Neil Young - Ambulance Blues
Realistically I could have picked 10 Neil songs, and 10 different ones tomorrow. I've always felt that Old Man is an absolutely perfect song, but Ambulance Blues is a real gem that demands your full attention.
Frightened Rabbit - Head Rolls Off / My Backwards Walk
The whole The Midnight Organ Fight album is just fucking brilliant. I've had to cheat here and pick 2 songs, but they are perfect together on the album and it's impossible for me to separate them.
R.E.M. - So Fast, So Numb
Another close call, this could easily have been Driver 8, Country Feedback, Losing My Religion, the list goes on. My favourite song from probably my favourite R.E.M. record.
"This is now, this is here, this is me, this is what I wanted you to see. That was then, that was that, that is gone, that is past"
Blind Melon - Walk
Starting with "Find myself singing the same songs everyday. Ones that make me feel good when things behind the smiles ain't ok" and finishing with "Gonna take a breath and try again..." This song has saved me from some dark places on more than one occasion.
Tom McRae - The Alphabet of Hurricanes
I just get lost in this one every time I hear it.
PJ Harvey - You Said Something
Everything about this song is wonderful. The lyrics, the guitars, just the overall feel of the song.
Afghan Whigs - Honky’s Ladder
Gets me fired up every time. An absolute explosion of a song.
dEUS - Instant Street
I love how the outro cacophony just builds and builds. I love the whole of The Ideal Crash record, it's the perfect blend of their experimental early songs and a more straightforward sound. The world needs more dEUS!
A few honourable mentions (I knew I couldn't pin it down to just 10!):
PJ - Nothing As It Seems
Turin Brakes - The Door
Iron & Wine - The Trapeze Swinger
Carter USM - Lean On Me I Won’t Fall Over
Scott Matthews - Passing Stranger
Shawn Smith - All The Heartache A Man Can Stand“Do not postpone happiness”

Interesting and diverse choice, nice! That Blind Melon song is great. And what an interesting choice for a Neil song. I was just giving On the Beach a spin the other day. I'm always fascinated by move it took so many years for that LP to gain the recognition it truly deserves.
"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -
Now, I’m rethinking my R.E.M. choice! The live version of Country Feedback from the second greatest hits collection is so great. Stipe has said that’s his favorite song in the catalog I think. YouTube has a live cover from Neil Young if I’m not mistaken.goldrush said:Great idea for a thread - so hard to imagine narrow it down to 10 songs though!

Country Feedback live at The Bridge School is my absolute favourite version. Neil plays some truly beautiful solos, there’s a great shot of Michael Stipe just sitting and watching in awe. I have no idea how many times I've watched this over the years!CarryTheZero said:

I love Sheela Na Gig! I almost chose This Is Love purely for the guitar sound, it’s just filthy (in the best way!)tempo_n_groove said:Love to see a Polly Jean Harvey song on here. I’m a huge fan of Sheela na gig and Dress.
I saw Orion on your list. That’s one of my favourite Metallica songs, but I think I love Rodrigo y Gabriela’s cover of it just as much, maybe even more. It’s such a powerful tune, even on acoustic guitars.“Do not postpone happiness”

Love the Rodrigo n Gabriela version too! It is very different in any version that the songs they play and it should be heard but the OG Orion will always be my fav.goldrush said:

Any PJ Harvey song is a good PJ Harvey song.

Smashing Pumpkins - Starla
The masters of quiet/loud and controlled feedback and this song displays both at the highest level. Billy Corgan is an absolute guitar genius.
John Prine - Paradise
This is one of three songs on my list that I’ve been hearing my entire life and have grown to love. My dad recently passed away and JP was his favorite of all time. He was a professional musician and this was a staple cover my entire life. I love it.
Kyuss - Gardenia
I probably could’ve picked any song from “Sky Valley” but chose this one. Josh Hommes guitar sound on this record is insanely good. Love the tone and tuning.
Johnny Cash - Folsom Prison
#2 of songs my dad covered ever since I can remember. I know my dads voice singing this more than the original.
Pearl Jam - Blood
Crushing guitars. Pounding drums. The best EV voice ever for me. My favorite PJ song
The Band - The Weight
#3 of the mentioned earlier. My dads favorite record of all time…music from big pink. Possibly my favorite song of all time.
Rage Against The Machine - Freedom
I don’t want to get into how much this song means in todays times. Loved it since day one.
Led Zeppelin- Thank You
Do I need to explain this one? Just one of the greatest songs ever. Beautiful song construction.The Doors - When the Musics Over
The opener from Live At the Hollywood Bowl version is magical. This is another one I could’ve picked from a bunch of different Doors songs.Radiohead - The Bends
The guitar work on this record is absolutely insane! Another one I could’ve picked from several songs but the bends is fireJimi Hendrix - Vodoo Child
Pearl Jam - Smile
James Gang - Walk Away
Smashing Pumpkins - XYU
Roger Miller - King of the Road
Beatles - Happiness is a Warm Gun0 -
Some days I could easily add...Ramones, "Beat on the Brat"Ian Dury and the Blockheads, "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick".Lou Reed, "Vicious"Hit meeeeeeeee!Post edited by brianlux on"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0

My top 10 that meet this criteria:
Pearl Jam - Given To Fly
I want this to be the last song played at my funeral, it's just perfection.
Violent Femmes - Blister in the Sun (honorable mention to Add It Up too)Shouting it out and dancing round like I've got the zoomies.
Blind Melon - The PusherNot my number1 BM song, but this one gets me pumped.
Fugazi - Waiting Room
Great for angsty days
MC5 - Kick Out the JamsDoes it need explaining why?
The Who - Anything off QuadropheniaSee MC5
Cat Power - I am a MapWoman power perfection
The Kinks - Waterloo SunsetJust feels so good
Pixies - VelouriaAnother one that just feels good to let loose
Siouxsie and the Banshees - Cities in DustAnother one that gives the zoomies

Great list! Totally agree about Starla! They have so many great epic songs, but that one has got to be the best. Love it. Recently discovered John Prine, and he is amazing as well. Sorry to hear about your dad. That is tough. My dad passed away suddenly about a year and a half ago. It is great that you have the songs as a connection!Abe Froman said:Smashing Pumpkins - Starla
